@FlowmentumMTB6 күн бұрын
Of all the Maxxis Tyres the Ardent was my fave, not the “Race”. Yes the issue was weak sidewalls and as I’m a 100kilo (240pounds) they just never held up in support but gripped good and were fast. These FORCE AM2 Tyres are very sturdy and still light.
@oiersaenz7 күн бұрын
I have been using a set of wild (front) and force (rear) in 2.4 for 1750km, and they will still last another 300 or 400km. I think they are perfect tires for aggressive trail riding. I admit that I have had several scares due to loss of front grip, but I think they were my mistakes. Previously I rode wild enduros, which are beasts in terms of grip but I suffered when climbing. These seem to me to be a perfect compromise between grip and rolling, although it makes me pay more attention to the line. The Force AM2 is not a mud tire. In my area it rains a lot and in winter I have had some traction problems on muddy ramps. But as I said before, taking care of the route can be solved fairly well. In any case, if the descent is muddy, you have to regulate your speed.
@FlowmentumMTB7 күн бұрын
Hey @oiersaenz thanks for your comment. I have just got myself a set of the Wild AM2’s, I’m keen to try them but I reckon I’ll end up with a FORCE AM2 on the back as well. It seems like the ultimate all round combo with the least compromises. I am going to stick to a 2.6” up front just as I’m riding now. Stay Rad and thanks again for your comment👍

Hey Grant, rather not comment as I’ve only ridden them once, they were on a mates bike I rode for the day but the air pressure and suspension set up wasn’t right for me so it would be unfair to base my experience on that. They do get good reviews and no doubt for good reason, like Michelin if it’s a major Euro brand they will have something good to offer.

I considered the Force AM2. Has my rear tyre wear on my bike and was looking for more efficiency. Decided to keep it in the family and go with Vittoria aggaro on the rear to compliment the up front Mazza. previously Mazza-Martello 2.4 2.35. wasn't a fan of the Martello. Big fans of the Mazza and Agarro. Still keen to try out the Michies tho. maybe after I replace my front tyre and this set wears out. Rear tyre is still a bit fresh to swap full set but front is on its way out.

Hey @JakeyDill I can understand why you were happy to stick with a brand that you know and although ive not used Vittorias in some time I can confidentially say that you cant really go wrong with any of the 3 Euro leaders right now, Michelin, Vittoria & Conti’s. Obviously I will recommend giving the Michi’s a shot when an opportunity arises, but you’re not missing out by riding the Vittoria’s. Thanks for chiming in, appreciate you 👊
